2007 Stand-alone SnugRide® Infant Car Seat Recall
Potential Problem:

seats manufactured in the United States, may be prone to deterioration or tearing, especially after
washing. If this occurs, children occupying the car seat may be able to remove the padding material from
the back of the seat pad and place it in their mouths, posing a potential choking hazard.
